Thoughts on John Lobb shoes and boots?
Bump, nobody really?
Never heard of them but the two images you posted look very tacky
Not sure who they're marketed towards, as you certainly couldn't wear them in a professional environment

Tacky?
Really?
JL is as classic as it gets.
Who wears these shoes?
Putin, British Lords, Billionaires, CEOs
These are going to be the new RM williams in a couple of years when Chelseas go out of fashion

Do you think this is a good selling point?

very nice shoes, but the ones you posted don't look very JL. If it's their new line, it looks quite bad.
They are a premium brand, and their lasts are not so pretty imo. I don't know where the premium price goes. I think you are paying just for the handwelted process, but you can get it from Enzo Bonafé, and they are way prettier imo.

Lol, you can get hand welted shoes for $200-$300 MSRP

>Thoughts on John Lobb
RTW """John Lobb""" is some shit Hermés churns out and a worse investment than just wiping your ass with the money. Genuine bespoke John Lobb shoes are literally the GOAT, but then they're £4-5k to spend on one pair.
Don't confuse the two as though British peers wear RTW Lobb.

post collection.
Alden or bust
>>12570040
yes, if OP is fat he should go with Allen Edmonds or Alden. Those are the only brands with reinforced soles for the weight challenged.

>only brands with reinforced soles
Wtf is this. AE doesn't even use shanks, and generally every heeled shoe has a shank

Just get Meermin, Grenson, or Aldens premium line. JL RTW is hype, not even actual JL from what I understand. Their shoes are only worth it if you get them actually made bespoke, otherwise not worth the price at all.

>Meermin, Grenson, or Aldens premium line.
lol
>>12570970
Also their RTW lasts are terrible, they're all thin long and pointy, looks super ugly imo
>>12570975
Why lol?
